How much is too much?

A question that always comes to mind when I think about blogging and sharing ones news on the Internet for friends and family (and I guess in some instances complete strangers), is "How much is too much?"

When deciding to post on a blog, what information is "fine" to share and what is complete over share? Who is the blog really for anyways? Is it a form of documenting? Or is it a small way to share a journey with loved ones who miss out on the day to day activities or even the really big ones?!

I guess from where I'm sitting (well the actual location being my comfy couch in our lounge) the point of wanting to restart and work with this blog is to capture some of our stories as well as share them with people who are interested in reading them. I guess for me it's also a way of documenting so I don't forget and so one day I can use some of what's written on here to paint a story for our children & their children, and maybe along the way we can also help one or two people out. One of my goals in life is to help people, so maybe, just maybe this can be another avenue of helping even just one individual out?!

I guess we'll just have to see! But here's to hoping I'll post more than once a year each year (my current abysmal record)!
